Mike:

Thanks.  Yes, I've been using 0.23, which seems to be in great shape.
My concern is that there is always a lag with many users, and I don't
want to exclude 0.22 users when there is only a very small portion of
code that is 0.22 specific.  If there isn't a good #define for
conditional compilation, I can create my own within my plugin for the
purpose of my code.

Thanks again.

George
